Vidan and Abudabi tried to combine their abilities to overwhelm Red, but Red easily defends himself using the black bandages thanks to his Kizuna Black form. Seeing the overwhelming difference in power, Vidan started targeting Red's teammates and the rest of the elves.

Although Vidan was sure that his attack would prompt a strong reaction from Red, Red managed to defend against it using the Kizuna Black bandages. While Red easily overpowers the demons in his Kizuna Black form, Yhidra noticed Red's painful and animalistic shrieks, indicating his anguish.

Soon enough, Red managed to defeat Vidan and revert him into a much weaker form, prompting Abudabi to escape alongside a weakened Vidan. Given the absence of the demons, Red started attacking the elf village along with all of his party members, compelling Yhidra, Lowji, and Raniya to fight him.

The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World episode 12, then cuts to a flashback of Red when he joined the Kizuna Rangers. The Kizuna Black transformation was granted to Red as a last resort due to its overwhelming reliance on and magnification of the user's obsessions and insecurities.

The flashback also revealed the sixth Kizuna Ranger, Kizuna Silver, who had joined the team after receiving a vision of herself as the Silver Ranger and dying in battle. Oddly enough, Silver preferred operating alone, disconnected from the rest of the Rangers.

Red soon developed romantic feelings for Silver, which led him to invite her to operate alongside the rest of the Rangers to prevent her fate of dying in duty. Unfortunately, Silver died in battle while trying to save Red, which, alongside Red's childhood trauma from his parents' deaths, resulted in the overwhelming power of the Kizuna Black form.
